This bar is so on trend and the tapas is fabulous, some of the best I have had. It is tucked in a little corner but still has an alluring funky atmosphere, big comfortable lounging chairs and outdoor seating. We ordered salt and pepper calamari which just melted in your mouth.

How lovely is this place ! Gorgeous bar at the top end of town with fantastic service and seriously good cocktails from experienced staff.

An intimate experience that you can share with anyone and not leave it feeling awkward in the morning.
The tunes were like a good conversationalist. There to entertain and fill the gaps but not dominating or overpowering.
Tapas so good you will end up eating a banquet equivalent. There is a moscato on the when list that will soothe the...
